Dependants of Gaza students can come to UK, government says

**Summary:**The UK government has announced a significant policy change, allowing partners and children of Gazan students to join them in the UK for studies. This comes after Gazan students faced hardship due to the conflict in Gaza, which made studying abroad challenging. The new rule requires each family to prove they can cover living costs, with minimum savings of £6,120 outside London or £7,605 in London. Despite this change, applications are not automatic, and students must meet certain requirements, including showing they have enough funds. Over seventy-five Gazan students have already arrived in the UK, but six were unable to start their master's in Glasgow due to enrollment deadlines. Reactions to the policy change have been mostly positive, with frustration for those who missed out. The ongoing Israel-Gaza conflict continues to pose challenges for Gazan students seeking safety and education in the UK. The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered. Hosted on Acast.
